A One-of-a-Kind Sparkling Collaboration,
Only at Premiere Napa Valley
Peter Mondavi Jr. and I have been friends for a lifetime, and this year, we’ve come together to create something truly special—”Old Friends,” an exclusive sparkling wine crafted just for the esteemed Premiere Napa Valley Auction.
This remarkable 2021 cuvée, a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the renowned Mitsuko’s Vineyard in Carneros, reflects Napa Valley’s finest terroir. Aged on tirage for over three years and finished with a distinctive dosage from Charles Krug’s 2019 Carneros Pinot Noir, it delivers elegance, complexity, and a story worth savoring.
Available only as a special Premiere Napa Valley auction lot, this limited-edition sparkling wine is a true tribute to friendship, craftsmanship, and excellence.
